HC Deb 21 July 1914 vol 65 c238
17. Sir J. D. REES

asked what has been the result of the offer of a bounty of 250 rupees a man to prolong his Colour service for two years?

Mr. ROBERTS

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply given to the hon. Member for South Birmingham on the 16th instant.

Sir J. D. REES

Is the hon. Gentleman conscious of the fact that that reply did not give any information, and, in consequence, I have put this question?

Mr. ROBERTS

I think there is no real inconsistency between the two replies.
